Alan Ruck, who played Cameron on "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," is 52 years old. (He was already 29 when he played the 17-year-old in 1986.)
That seems just impossible to me. Let my Cameron go!

- I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog, Facebook, and Twitter.

What's impossible for ME to believe is that I actually *was* 17, when that film came out! Where the bleep has my youth gone?
Oh, I love me some Cameron!
Seriously?! 52! Girl, come over to my office and pick me up off the floor where I have fallen in shock.
I always wanted Cameron to be my emo boyfriend, before emo had been invented, and provided his father did not beat him TO DEATH that very evening, which I have long suspected/feared.
"What are you interested in?"
"Nothin'."
I somehow only saw Ferris Bueller's... a few years ago and thought Alan Ruck was adorable. I went to IMDb to find out more about him and was SHOCKED when I realized that he was 29 when it was filmed. Guess I'm not the only person in their late twenties who can pass for a teenager. ;)
